Chapter 142 - Self-Rescue Manual of a Villainess
Time always passes quickly, and the agreed-upon day quickly arrived. Nan Yin boarded the flight to New York with the first group of five accompanying members. At nine o'clock on the same day, they landed at the New York airport. The hotel had been booked in advance. Busy all day, Nan Yin hurriedly checked in with Bai Lang and the others. The opening ceremony of the expo was in two days, and they still had plenty of time. However, what Nan Yin didn't know was that at the same time they checked in, two unexpected guests from Tianzhou City also checked in at the same hotel. "Sha Lang! Over here!" A woman with beautiful long white hair waved her hand while pulling a suitcase. Nearby onlookers couldn't help but follow her gesture and saw another equally beautiful blonde woman walking in from the VIP channel, holding a large suitcase similar to the white-haired woman's. "Bai Xi, why are you walking so fast?" Bellmond finally caught up to Bai Xi and couldn't help complaining. Since getting off the plane, Bai Xi had been walking briskly, contrary to her usual quiet and lovely demeanor, making Bellmond, who was in high heels, suffer quite a bit on the way. "Sha Lang, look what I got!" Instead of answering Bellmond, Bai Xi raised her phone with a smile, showing the big red packet she had grabbed for just twelve yuan on a certain app. Seeing this scene, Bellmond found it exasperating. Who were they? She was a world-famous star and certainly didn't lack money. And as for Bai Xi, although she didn't have a public face, her special abilities gave her a high status within the organization, and money was just a number to her. And yet, such an esteemed woman was now delighting in a twelve-yuan red packet... Bellmond was truly at a loss. "Hey, hey, can we go settle into our accommodation first? Don't delay our time over such a small gain, okay?" Bellmond helplessly said, although anyone could hear from her tone that there was no blame in it, but rather a hint of indulgence. "Alright, alright." Bai Xi usually listened to Bellmond. Upon hearing this, she stopped flaunting the fact that she had snatched a twelve-yuan red packet. However, on the way back to the room, Bellmond could still hear Bai Xi muttering about her twelve-yuan red packet. "A twelve-yuan red packet... I've never seen such a big one before." Finally at her wits' end, Bellmond turned around, embraced Bai Xi, and held her shoulders, gazing into her eyes that were like rubies. Bellmond whispered softly, "Darling, shall we go for the best buffet in New York later?" If it were the man from yesterday, he would surely be astonished, because although Bellmond called herself the Noodle Witch, she was always smiling and friendly. But today, she was expressing a tender affection that he had never seen before. Bai Xi immediately grinned and tilted her head, "Okay~" Bellmond felt a bit duped. Why did she feel like Bai Xi's initial goal was just that? After finishing their meal and returning to the hotel, as they lay in bed after washing up, Bellmond seemed to remember something and looked at Bai Xi beside her. "Bai Xi, do you remember Ye Sai Li?" Bellmond asked. "Ye Sai Li?" Bai Xi furrowed her brow in confusion, then nodded after a moment of contemplation. "Yes, I remember. Isn't he in charge of the organization's auction at the next event?" "Yes, it's him." Bellmond nodded. "When I got off the plane today, I checked the organization's records and found that this guy seems to be in New York too." "He's also in New York?" Bai Xi tilted her head and smiled. "Shouldn't he be on the mother ship organizing the auction at this time?" "He should be..." Bellmond didn't know how to broach the subject, because she knew a bit about Ye Sai Li's plans. Among them were several high-ranking slaves at the auction, especially a child named Wu Luo. The name suited her background, and the reason Bellmond cared about this was simple—Bai Xi liked that child very much. "How should I put it... Well, let's sleep. I'm a bit tired." Bellmond didn't know how to bring this up in the end and decided to wait until closer to the auction to discuss it. She made up a reason to rest. In the dim light, Bai Xi looked at Bellmond's back, which she didn't know if she had closed her eyes, blinked doubtfully, but eventually didn't ask further questions, turned off the light, and rested. The next day, Bellmond got up early, and as she looked at Bai Xi still soundly asleep, she didn't intend to wake her companion. She carefully got dressed and prepared to go to the hotel's restaurant to see what was on the breakfast menu. However, as soon as she reached the restaurant's entrance, Bellmond saw a familiar figure in white... How could she be earlier than herself? No, Bai Xi was still asleep. Then, this familiar figure... Quickly adjusting her view to try and see the person's face, she was suddenly faced with a man in a Zhongshan suit. "Miss, do you have any questions? It seems like you're very interested in our chairman," the man blocking Bellmond was none other than Fube Zhengsi. As Nan Yin's security away from home, Fube Zhengsi was especially alert this time. However, in fact, Nan Yin currently had no real enemies. Perhaps there were only robbers who wanted money, or wanted to take advantage, or both. But this world wasn't the kind depicted in those 18+ manga; Nan Yin wasn't so easily drawn into various troubles. In any case, Fube Zhengsi, who was fully alert, noticed Bellmond first after all, since her attention was completely focused on Nan Yin, which is a coincidence, isn't it? Fube Zhengsi's whole attention was on Nan Yin, so he decided to chat with Bellmond. "Um..." Bellmond was a bit helpless for a moment. She didn't expect to be so excited just now that she forgot her usual best skill of disguise. She smiled awkwardly and raised her hand. "I'm sorry... I just felt that the young lady with white hair looked a lot like someone I knew." When Fube Zhengsi heard this reason, he couldn't help but furrow his brow. Wasn't this reason too perfunctory and traditional? However, just as he was about to question this woman, he heard Nan Yin's voice through his Bluetooth headset. He turned to look and then slightly gestured to Bellmond, "Hello, if it's convenient, our Miss would like to see you." Bellmond tilted her head to look over and indeed, the girl who looked so much like Bai Xi was already looking at her... At this point, Bellmond also remembered this girl. Wasn't she Bai Xi's daughter? Her own daughter. New reader group: 666403941, welcome all readers to come and play and ask for more updates!
